lyrics

Not Your Man
Rick and Hart Parnell

I said I’d be here, and so I am
I said I’d be here when we began
I said I’d be here to hold your hand
I said I’d be here and so I am

I said I’d be here,
Right ‘til the end,
But I’m not your man …

I saw that meaning, is hard to find
And when you’re near me, I might unwind
After what we’ve shared dear, don’t be so unkind
Life isn’t fair dear, but this one's mine

I said I’d be here,
Right ‘til the end,
But I’m not your man …

I knew your beauty when you weren’t shy
It wouldn’t leave you, hard as you try
I was innocent, deaf dumb and blind
After all the laughter we’ll share a cry

I said I’d be here,
Right ‘til the end,
But I’m not your man …

If there’s a way out, its almost here
We weren’t the first ones to show no fear
I know what your thinking, its so clear
I said I’d be here to wipe that tear

I said I’d be here,
Right ‘til the end,
But I’m not your man …

I said I’d be here,
Right ‘til the end,
I’m not your man …
